Where I live, it is pretty much impossible to find somebody that doesn’t support our military. With all of the military bases we have in Colorado, the military has a huge impact on our local economy and you will have a hard time finding somebody who doesn’t know somebody who is serving in the military so support for the troops is a big deal around here. While ‘Support our troops’ bumper stickers are quite common, nobody ever thinks to support the Stormtroopers. Since I think they need a little more support (perhaps it would improve their aim), I decided to post this cool t-shirt.

The awesome nerdy folks over at BustedTees are selling this Star Wars inspired Stormtrooper support our troops t-shirt for just $20. Even if you aren’t the type that goes to conventions dressed as a Stormtrooper, the least you can do is wear this shirt to show your support for those that do!

Remember, even if a shirt like this isn’t your think (perhaps you are a bigger Star Trek fan than you are of Star Wars), I’d bet there is somebody in your life that would love a shirt like this so give it some thought when you are looking for a gift for them!

Maybe its just a guy thing but I don’t think I will ever understand why women like wearing wedge shoes or high heel shoes. They just look ridiculously uncomfortable and frankly, I find it to be a bit deceptive. They make you look taller than you really are and your butt look better than it really is and I find that to be a bit deceitful. Maybe I’m the only guy that feels that way but I like women who are comfortable with who they are and not who they wish they were. Anyway, enough of my rant.

If you are the wedge shoe wearing type and a big Star Wars fan, I think I have found the shoes for you!

What better way to spend a day is there than sitting around the house having a marathon of all of the Star Wars movies? Well, one way to make it better would be to wear an R2-D2 robe at the same time! It might just make you feel like the Hugh Hefner of the Star Wars universe!

Well, if that sounds like a good idea to you, you can buy just such a robe! Stylin Online is selling this droidtastic R2-D2 hooded robe for $67.99. The R2-D2 robe is one size fits most and it is 100% cotton terry cloth with all of the fancy R2-D2 stuff embroidered on with satin panels.

Its too bad you can’t get items like this shipped to you the same day because this sounds like a perfect way to spend my weekend!

Are you a Star Wars fan that likes to show your love for the Death Star while showing off some leg too? Then I have found the perfect Death Star skirt for you!

Etsy seller GoChaseRabbits is selling this awesome Death Star skirt for $54.99. This skirt would be the perfect thing to wear for any sci-fi conventions you happen to go to or just a Star Wars movie marathon at a friends house.

The only rule for wearing this awesome Death Star skirt is that you aren’t allowed to blow any planets up. I know that is a big temptation, but you must resist! May the Force be with you!

I’ve never been a ballet kind of person (I am a guy after all) but I might be willing to see a Star Wars ballet if all of the costumes were as cool as this R2-D2 ballerina outfit! J!NX designer Leeloo is the creator of this fantastic R2-D2 tutu and I think it turned out fantastic! If anybody knows about any Star Wars ballets that myself and other readers could check out awesome costumes like this, let us know in the comments below!

I’ve seen some pretty impressive custom Star Wars shoes in the past, but I don’t think any of them really compare to these fantastic Star Wars TOMS shoes. Its hard not to love these awesome shoes and they include all of your favorite Star Wars characters from Han Solo to Darth Vader.

Considering how overloaded I tend to keep my pockets with everything that I need ranging from my wallet to MP3 players and portable gaming devices, I have never really seen the purpose of carrying around a purse. However, if all purses were this cool, I could understand why so many women carry them.

This amazing Boba Fett purse was created by Catherine Penfold-Waxman. Unfortunately, this purse doesn’t seem to be for sale in her Etsy store at this time although she is selling a number of awesome Doctor Who themed purses.

Matt Smith might not be my favorite Doctor (David Tennant is) but it amazes me how he was able to turn the fez into this Doctor Who icon even though I believe it was only in one episode. Anyway, DeviantART user janey-jane (The girl in the TARDIS dress) is apparently a big Doctor Who fan and decided to make these awesome 11th Doctor and TARDIS costumes for a sci-fi convention back in November. It might sound kind of strange, but I think this is the first time I have ever found the TARDIS to be sexy.

The more I watch various food related shows in tv, the more I want to start cooking. However, before I start trying to cook random recipes, I should probably get me a geeky cooking apron. Well, it seems I am in luck because Etsy seller HauteMessThreads has a couple of awesome custom Star Wars themed cooking aprons that are pretty great. Depending on your preference, the R2-D2 cooking apron will set you back $70 while the Darth Vader cooking apron costs only $55. I’d probably go with the Darth Vader one so I can wear my Darth Vader helmet while cooking and not look goofy.

Here is one of those rather odd cosplay combinations where a girl dressed up as the Punisher is posing with a Star Wars scout trooper and a snowtrooper. I’m not sure where this awesome photo was taken but Vampy (Punisher) apparently ran into some of her 501st Legion friends and decided to pose for a picture with them. Having attended many sci-fi conventions in the past, it never ceases to amaze me how many people want their picture taken with people dressed as various types of stormtroopers.
